Presidents should have line item Veto during National Emergencies and Pandemics
This would ensure Politicians don’t include bullshit spending and politically unethical laws during National Emergencies. Even if they did include bullshit spending on solar Panels for Covid-19 Virus like Pelosi is doing, there is very little chance congressional veto override on Pork spending vetos.

Trump already thinks he should personally oversee the distribution of the half a BILLION in an untraceable slush fund to his cronies and himself.

If that aint' corrupt, I don't know what is.

As someone so eloquently told me yesterday in regards to similar thinking: "That would make just too much sense."

Porking needs to stop

Bills should be introduced individually, ONE at a time, and be stand-alone on their OWN merit.

Can Trump sign an Executive Order this week, granting him the power to use a line item Veto on this aid package?

If so, it's time to light up our Congress critters and Senators hotlines!

OP you are so right! It will take a constitutional amendment but I would support your proposal of line item veto or single subject bills.

Re: Presidents should have line item Veto during National Emergencies and Pandemics
The line item veto should have been part of the Constitution. We need it as an amendment. That would stop all these ridiculous all encompassing bills and save a trillion dollars every year.

Problem is: SCOTUS ruled line item vetoes unconstitutional.


They tried to give it the POTUS under Gingrich's
"contract with America".


It was seen as an unconstitutional abdication of congress's power.

It does seem that everything in the proposal should have to deal directly with the actual emergency. It's not like it's some routine "omnibus" pos thing.
